Logun-Edé

Logun-Edé is an important orixá in Afro-Brazilian religions, representing the duality of nature and the balance between the forces of life and death. He is revered as the son of the goddess Oxum and the god Oxóssi, embodying qualities of beauty, youth, and strength. In the context of the Carnaval do Rio, Logun-Edé was highlighted in the samba-enredo presented by the Unidos da Tijuca, which celebrated his origins and significance in African culture and his journey to Brazil.
